History Published
on Canadian Jewry

MONTREAL (JTA) — The first
volume of a two-volume "History
of the Jewish Community in Can-
ada" by Rabbi Stuart E. Rosen-
berg of Toronto, has been publish-
ed here by McLelland and Stewart.
The book culminates eight years
of research and writing co-sponsor-
ed by the publishers and the Cana-
dian Jewish Congress.
The first volume deals with the
beginnings of the Canadian Jewish
community and its development to
the present time. The second vol-
ume will describe new trends in
the communal development of
Canadian Jewry and the contribu-
tions of Jews to Canada.
The American-born Rabbi Ro-
senberg, spritual leader of the
Beth Tzedek Congregation in To-
ronto, writes in the preface of
his book that this Is the first
extended statement about Cana-
dian Jews to be written by one
"who was neither born nor edu-
cated in Canada and one who
has consciously avoided identi-
fication with any Jewish organi-
zational establishment in the
country."
Jacques tMcLelland, speaking for

the publishers, said he was encour-
aged to risk money on the book
because "the Jews are known as
great book readers." He praised
the contributions to Canadian
culture by various Jewish poets
and expressed the hope that many
more Jewish writers will come to
the fore, thus invigorating the spir-
itual climate of aCnada.

wrong to accent "the counsel of
timidity," which advocates "si-
lence on controversial issues."
He cited American Jewish con-
cern for the state of Israel as a
case in point. Many American
Jews fear "that Jewish involve-
ment in the peace movement
alienates the administration, that
if we want governmental aid
for Israel, we had better be silent
on Vietnam. These fears are
odious on the grounds of princi-
ple,' Rabbi Schindler said.

In the finzl analysis, Rabbi
Schindler stated, America's foreign
policy "is dictated by America's
need, and not by what the Jews
of America say or fail to say on
the subject of Vietnam." He added
that "We can speak up for Israel
and against Vietnam without any
sense of conflicting purpose or
clashing convictions."
Referring to the fact that anti-
Semitism "continues to pose a real
threat today," Rabbi Schindler
said: "We are foolish to think that
our silence on issues of social
concern will somehow purchase our
safety. It never has, in all our
troubled history, for this is its
unfailing lesson—the bigot hates
us, no matter what we say, no
matter what we do or fail to do,
whatever be our stand. Then, why
not do what we must and what
is right?"
